I must answer again in the positive, no. And should not all this be of great val- ue and esteem to Mr Kitchea and his party, to know that the $25.000.000 is not all in Denmark, but a great deal of it is being lavished in tue isiands, which is quite enosugzh o eure their soreness of neart. It ¥ir Kitechen and hiz party think that the nation made a mistake in having therr “oreat desire’’ brought to a reality by purchasing the islands, they wili sure ly find when taking their (Kitehen and his party) plebiselte, that the wmnajority vote will be against them. Now fora tew of Mr Kiichen’s remarks and if he deems them to be thrown back ia his “face’”” he may ihere receive them. In his comment on the motion picture theatre, he said:- 1 want (o say that the type of pictures sent to the West Indies 1s doing the white race an ‘“‘amazing amount ofharm’’. Nearly cvery picture reveals white men and women :8 crooks murderers, seducers or biackmailers. Very good Mr, Kitchen, if right and aceording to your own deciaration, here is one disgrace to the islands oilered by you. ‘‘And the amazing amount of harm’’ which you say is being done to the white race, who—you well know are praciical to the above vices; is, I can assure you, doing a doubly, amazing | amount of harm to the natives. | : H €.

Mr. Lloyd George had notiting new to tell the mine-own- ers in tue House of Commons last night. He merely stated that Government had made ceriain suggestions, which the miners bad rejected and added that the tdome Sceretary was in no way responsi- ble for the present position of the econtro- versy. '‘he Premier further declared that tise sovt. was counsidering the possi- bility of iniroducing legislation which wouid prouibit ihe receipt of foreign monegy, Intended 0 be devoted to revolu- tionary propaganda movements in the Briush Isles. In Glasgow and the west of Scotland, the railway extremists have declared for a sectional strike to begin at midoight tnight, but it is very far from certain that other railway and transport workers will make any genera! response to this strike call. Coal mine owners In certain districts are making an effort to reopen the pits with scratcl, labour. The ¢eneral labour situation, which was sufficiently bad, was turther aggravated today by a strike of 8,000 electrical workers against a proposed re- duction of wages. Ponce, P. R. May 14th.
